You're probably aware of this, but Melanie went to the Taylor Swift concert this past Sunday, so on this (super-sized) episode we spend a significant amount of time on a TSwift recap. AS WE SHOULD. We also talk about a spaghetti dinner for Alex's buddies, a friend's 40th birthday party, and my quick weekend trip to Mississippi.

On top of all that, 'tis the season for our 2023 Graduation Gift Guide, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!
